Rapier, why is it NO ONE, repeat NO ONE has come to your defense? Even those who agree with you that Islam is the greatest threat to Western Civ. (big verne and LC to name a couple) have remained quiet, or in Hank's case, even argued AGAINST you.
Now if it were only WTF, myself, Bulsajo, and MOS, then yes, you could argue it is merely because we don't like you or some BS like that. Alas, that is obviously not the case here. |

| 1. No you said he was definitely a Muslim bomber. Anyway it sounds like you are stating that you and MOS both lost. In that case you should still pay MOS $20, because $40 (from you) minus the $20 (in your mind that you won from MOS) is $20. So by your own words you own MOS $20. |
(1) Except MoS was offering the $20 bet to Hank, not to Rapier. And Hank didn't take the bet.
Had he done so, I'd be tempted to side with those saying MoS should stump up - it should be the instigator of the bet who has to provide proof. Particularly if using words like 'definitely'.
(2) Anyway, this thread still sucks. |
(numbers are mine)
(1) True, but Mr. Rapier was claiming he won $20. You will see that I used in the phrase "in your mind". He was also claiming that MOS should pay out. I merely pointed out, that, were we to accept HIS version of things he would still own MOS $20.
(2) Again true. Mr. Rapier hate-mongering is particularly distressing. One would have thought that a university-educated graduate would have a slightly better grasp on reality. |

the only reason why you think you won is because you didnt answer any of my questions or respond to any of the points that i bought up.
why dont you take your own advice...you lost this bet fair and square. get over it and walk away a better man. |

What do you mean, "watch who you're calling a coward?" OF COURSE you're a coward. When I call you a coward, it's not a violation of the board rules, because in your case, it's an accurate description.
Not only are you a coward, but you're also a liar, a hypocrite, and an idiot.
And I can prove it.
First of all, you're a coward:

I'll take a piece of that. $20 says he wasn't an "Islamist", whatever that is. |
$40 says that he definitely was, for all the reasons I've just outlined above. China is desperate to cover up their muslim terror problems to keep the illusion of a cohesive country. |
You made a $40 bet, with me, and you welched on it.
As son of the dark stranger pointed out:

The bet in question was for $40. MOS' $20 bet was nullified by your bet--its terms are obsolete.
The terms of the $40 bet were that the man DEFINITELY was an "Islamist." That was your rather unfortunate word choice. The onus was on you. MOS didn't have to prove squat.
To summarize, the bet in question was for $40, and its terms were that the man was a Muslim--not that he wasn't. |
I offered a $20 bet to Hank, and you countered with a $40 bet to me, which I accepted, offering to split the difference. As hypnotist pointed out:

EVERYbody whose familar with the details of the bet, including whatthefunk, mithriditates, Butterfly, The Bobster, The Urban Myth, bucheon bum, Swiss James, and even Hank Scorpio, say you've lost the bet.

| dude, you're desperate here. Pay up, for the reason TUM gave. |

| Right, pay up. Hank did. |
| the Urban Myth wrote: |
| You had $40 riding on this bet, claiming he DEFINITELY was (capitals are mine). Now you say you can't prove it, so you have lost. Sorry, but them's the facts. |

| Hank Scorpio wrote: |
| Rapier, it's been a week. Neither of us could find anything confirming our suspicions (Although I still believe he probably was. Disgruntled people go on rampages, they don't suicide bomb), therefore we lost the bet. Cowboy up, quit stalling, and admit you've lost the wager. |
You even ADMITTED that you lost the bet:
| rapier wrote: |
| ...I can't prove the bomber was a terrorist. |
That's an admission that you lost the bet, plain and simple. I made no such admission or assertion.
Because you're not willing to own up to the fact that you're wrong, and that you lost a $40 bet you made in good faith, you're a coward.
Not only is it a matter of proof, but it's now a matter of general opinion. You've made yourself a coward in front of the whole board:
| the Bobster wrote: |
| watching you make that bet and now decide to ignore it, I start to feel the vomit reflex - no offense, but when you speak with eloquence and frequncy about the evils of Islam, and them you try to duck out on a very clearly spoken claim ... |
| Swiss James wrote: |
| I'll bet $20 rapier never pays up. |
| sonofthedarkstranger wrote: |
| Hank Scorpio wrote: |
| ...enough time has passed and I can't provide any further evidence that he was a Muslim, so yep, I owe BB $5. |
| rapier wrote: |
| You cannot prove he was not an islamist. |
This, right here...this is the difference between a man...and something less. |
So there it is. You're a f *beep* ing coward.
Get used to the idea.
Hell, everybody else has by now. ** shrug ** |

You promised to pay me $40 if the bomber of the incident in question was not definitely an "Islamist" (whatever that is). Since you've lost the bet, and now refuse to pay up, you lied.
Not only did you lie about the bet, but you also made s shit t up to try to prove your assertions, which mithridates showed to be wrong:

here we have it from the Chinese sina.com news:

http://content.sina.com/news/08/9087180_1_b5.html
rough translation but I've tried:
" Bus kill Fuzou. Man is Islam bomb man, village say uighur bomb muslim bomber." |
No, what it says is that the president of Taiwan said that the mainland isn't just capable of making weapons to threaten Taiwan, but also to the security of all of Asia and that it has missiles that can go ten thousand miles (or a few thousand, not sure if he's being figurative or not) and can directly attack - and that's where it cuts off. And the link doesn't go anywhere. |
The charitable conclusion to draw would be that you accidentally mistranslated the Chinese article you quoted.
But since you've already shown yourself to be a coward, you're it's a safe assumption you're a liar as well. |

Look who's talking. 
You criticize whatthefunk, and tell him that he lost the last debate you had with him fair and square. That he should get over it, and walk away a better man. Yet you lost your bet with me, refuse to admit it and pay up.
You refuse to get over it and walk away a better man, yet you criticize whatthefunk for not doing what you yourself are not man enough to do.
That makes you a hypocrite. |

Finally, not only are you a coward, a liar and a hypocrite, but you're also an idiot:
First, on Thursday you make an expensive bet with me:
| rapier wrote: |
| Manner of Speaking wrote: |
| I'll take a piece of that. $20 says he wasn't an "Islamist", whatever that is. |
$40 says that he definitely was, for all the reasons I've just outlined above. |
Then on Monday you admit you can't prove your bet:
| rapier wrote: |
| ...I can't prove the bomber was a terrorist. |
And go on to say:
| rapier wrote: |
| In the shadow of Chinese govt secrecy and state controlled media it would be prety hard to prove things either way. |
If you really believe what you said in that last quote, then why in the name of God did you make the bet in the first place?
I mean, how f *beep* ing stupid do you have to be, to make a $40 bet with someone, that you KNOW you can't win?  What kind of an idiot makes a $40 bet they know they're going to lose? |

So there you go.
You're a coward.
You're a liar.
You're a hypocrite.
And you're an idiot.
And by now you're a pathetic joke.
Like I said, get used to the idea. Everybody else has. |

i would love to be able to pull that debate up and point out how many of my points you REFUSED to answer to, but unfortunatley, the thread was deleted because of your extremely prejudice and stupid statements. |

You are a tit,a dweeb.
And in need of psychiatric attention.
Listen up, dickweed:If you spent as much energy finding proof the suicide bomber was not muslim as you do ranting and raving, you would have your $40. But instead you want to pretend you never made such a claim. But here it is.

Does amnesia form the main part of your dementia, or is it just a side disorder?

If I didn't win the bet, you stupid *beep* sucker, then why did Hank admit that he lost his?
Why don't you just be a man, admit that you lost, and pay up? Are you that much of a coward? |
